You don't have to figure any of it out. To whatever extent possible, set your ideas aside so that you can have an experience with a higher power. This is the open-minded part of it. Take the actions outlined and have an experience of your own.

I know a lot of devoutly religious people that can't stay sober. They know way more about God than I do. But they can't have that experience because all their SELF gets in the way. Their 'already having it figured out' blocks their own experience.

Tricky stuff. Take precise actions, get precise results.
